London, England - Borough Market

No trip to London is complete without visiting the food frenzy that is Borough Market. Not only can you eat yourself silly trying almost every kind of cuisine, but you can also do some serious grocery shopping at so many interesting cheese, fresh meat, fish and produce stands.

The one stand at Borough Market you absolutely cannot miss is the grilled cheese stand called Kappacasein... trust me on this one!

Their grilled cheese is a mix of Montgomery cheddar, Ogleshield, and Comte cheeses, five types of onions and Poilane sourdough bread:
